The Rural Infrastructure Development Agency (RIDA) has been making significant strides in improving access to clean water in Matabeleland South. As part of their efforts, they have successfully drilled 110 boreholes, with plans to repair an additional 1,220 in the near future. This initiative is part of the government’s commitment to addressing the water accessibility issue in rural areas.

In order to achieve this goal, RIDA has been leveraging funds from the Treasury to drill an additional 50 boreholes. Furthermore, they have also partnered with other organizations to drill even more boreholes across the region. The aim is to provide communities with a sustainable source of clean water, which is essential for their health and overall well-being.

The significance of this project cannot be understated, especially in rural areas where access to clean water is often scarce. By drilling boreholes and repairing existing ones, RIDA is directly addressing this issue and helping to improve the quality of life for many people in Matabeleland South.

It’s important to note that access to clean water is not only vital for drinking, but also for various aspects of daily life such as agriculture, sanitation, and hygiene. By providing communities with reliable water sources, RIDA is not only addressing immediate needs but also contributing to long-term development and sustainability.

The government’s commitment to improving rural infrastructure, particularly in the area of water accessibility, is commendable. With continued efforts and support, initiatives like the one carried out by RIDA can have a significant and positive impact on the lives of rural communities in Matabeleland South.
